steelie 0 Report post Posted March 8, 2009 Good Day, Thaks Guys! Longears - Size 8 brown dry fly hackle. Palmered, then sandwiched between the two layers of foam. Spreading feather fibers apart before tying down foam so they stick out to the side nicely. You can use a bodkin or your scissors to spread the hackle.

steelie 0 Report post Posted March 10, 2009 Good Day, Thank JGK! Just make sure you are using good "floating" foam. If the foam is too thin, or gets too compressed, the flies lose their ability to float. FYI... Steelie Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
